Tried Peking Duck for the First Time
“When in Rome do as the Romans do,” as they say. While in Beijing I had to give Peking duck a try to experience the local cuisine. The food was delicious. It was a little bit greasy, but that’s due to fat on the duck. They gave you sauces and vegetables you can try and then they gave you little skins to wrap the duck in. This particular restaurant even made little duck sushi style and they had their own house sauce. They were like tasty little duck tacos.
